With the increased awareness that optimal cosmetic dentistry can have on self-image, self-esteem, and self-confidence, patients are no longer just wanting to close gaps or whiten their smiles. Patients are becoming very conscious of the size, proportion, and position of their teeth as related to their smile and face. By incorporating the art and science of cosmetic dentistry into our enhancement therapy, we are able to create excellent results on a consistent basis. This review explores the impact that cosmetic dentistry can have on creating facial harmony. The discussion demonstrates the importance of a proper esthetic diagnosis as well as a thorough bioesthetic evaluation of each patient. This review also stresses the importance of an objective and subjective assessment and how a detailed evaluation of each patient can help create harmonious and natural smiles.
